The Hypocrisy of the Left

I get so frustrated when I look at the papers, watch TV, or listen to the radio.  Liberals are constantly spewing hypocrisy yet are never called on it.  So, this morning as I sat here in the wee hours, I decided to come up with a list of hypocritical actions.  I found it was easy!  Let me share with you:

1.  They will paint every gun owner as dangerous when one nut shoots someone, but they go to great lengths to make sure Muslims aren't called dangerous when one of them blows up a bunch of people.

2.  They want severe penalties for anybody who kills an endangered animal or destroys the nest of an eagle, but they will defend tooth and nail the "right" to kill an unborn human.

3.  They want Americans to welcome to our country and pay for tens of thousands of refugees, but then somehow forget that we have tens of thousands of homeless veterans right here.

4.  They preach against intolerance, but when anybody speaks out in a conservative manner, they are called "racist," "hater," and the like.

5.  They call the Republican party the party of big money that is beholden to Wall Street and doesn't care about the little guy, but the majority of the "rich" in Congress are Democrats and their own presidential candidate has made tens of millions from Wall Street.

6.  They want to call people like Bruce Jenner "heroes" but people like Chris Kyle lots of names other than "hero," such as "killer" and "coward."

7.  They rail against the use of fossil fuels at rallies to which they pull up in their BMWs.

8.  Once again, they claim to be the most open-minded people, but polls show they favor silencing skeptics of "climate change."

9.  They constantly want to cut defense spending, but any other program threatened with termination is suddenly critical and will result in the death of grandma and the kids.

10.  They will wreck your life, career, etc., if you make fun of someone who is gay or transgender, but they have no problem making fun of poor, white, southern conservatives.

11.  They are all for free speech, but refer to conservative blacks as "white acting," or "Uncle Tom."

12.  They will require a student to have parental permission to take an aspirin at school, but they constantly fight against parental notification before an abortion.

13.  They descry the politics of division right after calling their opponents names.

14.  They feel that "Black Lives Matter," but if anyone says something such as "All Lives Matter," that person is labeled racist.

15.  They push and push for alternative energy, but then won't acknowledge that wind power is killing migratory birds by the thousands and, in fact, President Obama just signed a waiver allowing wind power farms to kill Eagles with no penalty. 

16.  They love living in a free country defended by a powerful military, but then they denigrate the military and its mission, and they themselves, as a general rule, don't serve--the military is vastly conservative.

17.  After every terror attack committed by Muslim extremists, they invariably issue a statement calling Islam a "religion of peace."

18.  They want our kids to have recess at school, but they, over time, have had all the jungle gym equipment and other fun stuff removed from playgrounds for safety reasons.  In some places they've even outlawed dodge ball and tag.

19.  They go to church and take communion but, once again, support the killing of the unborn.

20.  They send their kids to private schools but fight against school vouchers which would allow poor people to do the same. 

 

I could keep typing for hours, but you get the point.

Gender Fluid?

I just read this morning that a well known reporter in Ireland has coined a new phrase.  He wants to be referred to now as "gender fluid" meaning that he sometimes identifies as male and sometimes as female.  This doesn't make sense to me if, as the left claims, sometimes people are born into a body which doesn't fit who they truly are, which would imply that you have to be one or the other.  His name is Jonathan Clynch, but now he wants to be referred to as Jonathan Rachel Clynch since his gender is "fluid."  Okay, call me a bigot if you want, but this is nuts.  What next?  I'll tell you what next.  Here's an article I came across:

Attorney Calls for New Legislation to Protect TS Against Discrimination

     (AP)  An attorney for one of the plaintiffs in an ongoing discrimination suit has called for new legislation to protect others from the type of discrimination he says his client is facing.  "Nobody should have to face the kind of discrimination that my client faces on a daily basis," said DC attorney John Simpson.  "He feels he is a dog born into a human body and is undergoing TS (Trans-species) change.  He should be given equal treatment under the law, but the problem is that current law doesn't protect those who are trans-species."

     Simpson's client, an unnamed 27 year old from Bowie, Maryland, has been undergoing trans-species surgeries since last year.  He's already had his teeth sharpened, undergone hair growth therapy, and his rear leg bones altered to prevent him from standing on two feet.  Simpson told the paper that next week his client will have his voice box removed, and he wanted to discuss this issue while he still can.  "After next week, all he will be able to do is bark, so he wanted to tell me everything he wants now while he still can," Simpson said.
     Simpson says his client started experiencing discrimination when he went to the dog pound one day and wanted to enter the dogs' runs but was refused access.  He says his client was told that unless he was there to pay the fees to take a dog out of the lock-up, he could not go into the runs.  When he told the personnel at the pound that he wanted to go in the runs because he felt he really wasn't human but was, in fact, a dog, the people at the facility called the police.  "All my client wants," Simpson says, "is to be allowed to be what he feels he was supposed to be born as--a dog."

Okay, I made this up.  But for those who say, "This is ridiculous and far-fetched" I say this.  Ten years ago, would you have considered "gender fluid" far-fetched?  Think about it.  And then think about this.  According to the left, if you don't accede to this guy's wishes, or any of these other confused people's, you are a bigot and should be ruined.

Here is a picture of Simpson's client, who still enjoys human activity: 

 

Stop Promising the World!

I read the news every morning and sometimes get depressed, sometimes angry, and sometimes there are stories that actually make me feel good, although they are rare.  Sometimes, though, for some reason, a story makes me indignant.  Today's news falls into this category.  Today Hillary Clinton proposed, if she is elected president, a $350 BILLION dollar program to relieve college loan debt and to make loans themselves more affordable.  First of all, I think it's fairly apparent that this is yet another scheme by a pandering politician to get votes using my (and your) tax money.  This has been going on for years and, while Republicans do it too (George Bush's drug program for seniors comes to mind), Democrats are masters at it.  When he signed legislation creating Welfare, LBJ is rumored to have said, "That will keep the n*****s voting Democrat for 200 years."  Since then we've added all kinds of things such as food stamps and "Obama" phones and Medicaid and Social Security Disability to keep people voting Democrat.  Don't get me wrong.  There are plenty of people who are truly in need and for whom these programs are a lifeline.  However, everyone knows that these programs are rife with fraud and abuse.  Mr. Obama himself said he'd pay for much of "Obamacare" with "$500 billion in fraud and waste from Medicare."  Once Obamacare got enacted, however, we didn't see much work on the huge waste problem in Medicare.
At any rate, so I start reading online news today and I see this story about Hillary and the $350 BILLION she's going to spend to help out people who have student loans, which is a lot of people and which could equate to a lot of votes, because that's what Democrats do as well--they're experts at demagoguing these types of issues.  Now all she has to do is go up against a Republican who says they want to balance the budget and that we can't afford these types of expensive programs, and she will portray it as Republicans are against helping students in general.  Any time there is talk of budget cutting all the Democrats have to do is say, "See, they will cut off your check," and they get votes. 
I'm tired of it.  I want a president who will be serious about balancing the budget.  I don't want a president who will pander for votes using my tax money.  I want to start paying down our national debt.  We can do it; I've talked about how in many of my other posts.  But before we can do that, we've got to stop promising billions in taxpayer and borrowed dollars for programs designed to win votes.
